Anyone else not have a cuddly baby?

Question

all I want to do it cuddle my baby but every time I do he gets irritated! Is there anyone else experiencing this? He's 7 months old.

Answer

Lol YUP. He's got too many things to do and see to be held up by mommy snuggles.

Answer

My daughter will claw my face or constantly attack my glasses if i try to snuggle her 🙁
If she passes out on the bottle i always hold her those few extra minutes before putting her in her cot though 🤗

Answer

He's to busy to cuddle with me anymore! Makes me sad, I feel like he's growing up to fast! 😕

Answer

My son used to love cuddling. Now it's a rare event!

Answer

My daughter used to cuddle. Now she's constantly on the move and only wants to cuddle if she's sleepy. It makes me sad sometimes. Other times I'm happy she's not attached to me 24/7 and can amuse herself haha

Answer

My son only cuddles when he's sleepy otherwise he is a wild crazy man! He constantly has to be bouncing or kicking or waving his arms.  We joke he has restless limb syndrome because he never sits still!

Answer

I wish my son was a cuddler! He was a strange baby from the day he was born. He would get so irritated if a nurse tried swaddling him! He never let me cuddle him and would never sleep on me. I always thought that was weird for a newborn and felt so depressed thinking he hated me. It really does make me sad. I just want to hold my baby! I've never been able to hold him. I don't get it. Recently he stopped letting me feed him (I seriously have to put him on a pillow on the ground and hand him his bottles or he won't eat at all) and he throws a hissy fit if I try puting him in a baby carrier. I know this sounds horrible, but I'm expecting another baby in February and pray this baby is the opposite (except in sleeping habits). I love my son! He is so adored. But I just want a baby who wants to be close to me! Who makes me feel like they love me. I'm hoping that when my son becomes a toddler he'll be a little more affectionate and enjoy being held. But we'll see.

Answer

I thought he was going to be an odd ball (both hubby and i love to cuddle) but through some perseverance and baby wearing we love our cuddles :)

Answer

7.5 months old and has never EVER fallen asleep in my arms, even after nursing her, I unlatch her and her eyes pop open. If you try to hold her hand she pulls away and looks annoyed, only if she is tired will she snuggle into me... for a second! Glad I'm not alone!

Answer

My son has NEVER been a cuddler! I got robbed :(
